Subject: [PATCH] scsi: qla2xxx: Zero dport diagnostics buffer to avoid info
 leak

qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics() allocates the qla_dport_diag response
buffer with kmalloc_obj() (non-zeroing) and, on success, copies the full
sizeof(*dd) back to user space via sg_copy_from_buffer(). The inbound
sg_copy_to_buffer() only fills as many bytes as the user request payload
provides, and qla26xx_dport_diagnostics() zeroes only dd->buf. The
options and unused[] fields are therefore copied out uninitialized,
leaking kernel heap contents to user space.

Allocate with kzalloc_obj(), matching qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics_v2().
